Nick Burch commented on TIKA-1630:
----------------------------------
Those are detection, the file formats page only refers to parsing
If you are able to write a parser for APK files, we'd love it if you could add
one in! http://tika.apache.org/1.8/parser_guide.html has information on what's
involved in writing a parser, you'd need to read up on the file format too to
work out how to parse it
> Mention APK support in List of Supported Formats
> ------------------------------------------------

> Key: TIKA-1630
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-1630
> Project: Tika
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: documentation
> Affects Versions: 1.8
> Reporter: Lorenz Leutgeb
> Priority: Trivial
>
> http://tika.apache.org/1.8/formats.html claims to offer a "full list of
> supported formats" does not mention support for APK files at all.
> I trusted that source and only found that tike supports APK files and their
> respective MIME types from looking at Tikas codebase, which is suboptimal.
> Please add APK files to that list as appropriate (at least include the MIME
> type Tika understands).
> Consider reevaluating the list to find out whether other formats are missing
> (this is not covered by this ticket).
